Nothing will ever beat the C&c 1 DOS installer. Incidentally, that was my very first own pc game ever and the start of my gaming career. For some reason I expected that all other games in the future would have similarly impressive, artsy install procedures. That unfortunately never happened.

Then again I was spoiled for having c&c1 be my first ever pc game.

I honestly don’t know, I haven’t had a Reddit account for nigh on 2 years. I only lurk there now and honestly I shouldn’t even do that. I’ve completely given up on all social media outside of the fediverse.

I’ve tried many paths in my life. Today at age 41 I know least where I want to go, rather than having any clearer idea of where my life is headed.

There’s also the distinct possibility that we’ll be mostly dead in a decade due to climate change, famine, pandemic or war, in which case our preferences, hopes and dreams don’t matter in the slightest.

I think a shadowban used to be all or nothing, but now it’s possible on a sub by sub basis and possibly even temporarily.

Yup that’s shadowbanning for ya.

I pass like 15 lights on my commute and the amount of time standing still for NO REASON is absolutely infuriating. How much could it possibly cost to add a simple sensor? No cars coming from the sides? Light stays green! But no, it’s all just dumb timers instead…

I feel like I already post too much lol. But that might be an artifact from my autism which always makes me feel like I’m not good enough or have nothing worthwile to contribute.

Cool, had no idea this existed.

The only thing I know gas stoves to be better at than other methods is traditional wok. But that’s hardly a reason to jeopardize your health for.

White rice too.

There’s research to suggest that every language comes with its own specific mode of thinking, which means that for every additional language you pick up, you quite literally gain a new perspective on things in general. I absolutely believe it. It’s also why the party in 1984 was hellbent on using newspeak and outlawing previous languages.

It’s almost a certainty they’re checking the hashes of your pics against a database of known csam hashes as well. Which, in and of itself isn’t necessarily wrong, but you just know scope creep will mean they’ll be checking for other “controversial” content somewhere down the line…

Now I’m intrigued.

Most of current LLM’s are black boxes. Not even their own creators are fully aware of their inner workings. Which is a great recipe for disaster further down the line.

Sure, but to go from spaghetti code to praising nazism is quite the leap.

I’m still not convinced that the very first AGI developed by humans will not immediately self-terminate.

God dammit, and just as Google starts enforcing manifest 3. Maybe it’s time to stop doing this internet thing altogether. It had a pretty nice run but right now it’s just a propaganda and compliance tool…

Thanks for your answer! I was afraid I had posed the question wrong somehow but this is exactly what I was getting at.

I have a feeling we’re going to find out in the next five years.

I dunno man. Accidentally seeing Goatse or Tubgirl never damaged me. Doomscrolling and social media in general though is making (not just) me depressed AF.
